Unknown number of people entered the building in the city of Hania, broke through a first-floor door and started a fire.
The fire brigade said the blaze partly destroyed the synagogue’s wooden ceiling, as well as many of its archives, computers and CDs. It estimates the damage at $43,000.
Police said about 2,500 books, many of them rare editions, have been destroyed in this and a previous arson attack three weeks ago.
